Ashwagandha Complex Adrenal Support Supplement for Stress Relief, Cortisol Balance, Energy & Focus, Mood Support, 35% Withanolides, 60 Vegan Capsules

I started taking this Ashwagandha Complex during a really stressful stretch and was pleasantly surprised by how balanced it made me feel. I didn’t get a jittery “energy boost,” just a calmer, more focused mindset and more consistent energy throughout the day. After a couple of weeks, I noticed I wasn’t feeling as wound up and my afternoon crashes were less intense. It’s been an easy addition to my routine and feels like solid support for stress and overall well-being.

I took these supplements for a month, as well as the thyroid ones (I'm going to leave the same review on both), with one Adrenal Support capsule in the morning and one Thyroid Support in the evening. I then stopped taking them for a month and now have started taking them regularly again. Here are my experiences: I was always tired and had difficulty sleeping, and would wake up in the morning feeling like I hadn't slept at all. I have also had chronic pain related to fibromyalgia for a long time. After having some tests done, my doctor told me about Adrenal Fatigue, and I did some reading about theories of how fibromyalgia is related to the body being stuck in "fight or flight" mode after a physical or psychological trauma. I had also had difficulty losing weight over the last five years, stuck on a plateau no matter what dietary changes, supplements, or excercise routines I tried. So the Adrenal Fatigue (and other hormonal problems related to the thyroid) diagnosis brought into view what could be causing or contributing to all of my problems. Reading about various natural solutions, I came across 1Body's products and decided to give them a try. Oh My Goodness. I wish I had found this sooner. I started sleeping better, waking up feeling rested, and that alone can fix so many health issues. I was also feeling more energetic throughout the day, not even feeling an afternoon slump or desire to nap. And to top it off, I didn't change my diet (I already eat a "healthy" diet, I know that's subjective, but most different dietary points of view these days agree on eating lots of vegetables, fish, and plant proteins and fats) and suddenly started steadily losing weight. I lost 10 pounds without changing anything but taking the 1Body Adrenal and Thyroid supplements, AND I started fitting comfortably into clothes that used to be too tight. When I stopped taking them for a month, I rode the high I was on for a while, continuing to sleep well and feel full of energy. It gradually declined, and before starting to take them again a few days ago, I felt like I needed to stay in bed all day and still not feel rested enough, again. I'm not saying I think I will have to take these for the rest of my life. My suspicions are that my hormonal levels took years/decades to get as bad as they are, and so I shouldn't expect to fix them in only one month. Hopefully, taking a month's worth and taking a short (not another month) break and then repeating the cycle, will eventually get my body re-programmed to function on it's own again. I'm trying to undo the physical damage of PTSD and I think this product is what I've been needing to do that.

I have had insomnia most of my life and developed on and off fatigue issues a couple years ago (I'm in my early 40s). I had a physical and visited a cardiologist so it appears that there are no nefarious causes to the fatigue aside from perimenopause. I have low progesterone and while progesterone creams helps a lot, I'm still very tired when I don't take it (you only take it the last 15 days of your cycle). This seems to be a decent product overall. I've been taking this for a week now. It started working pretty quickly—the first or second day. Unfortunately it appears I'm sensitive to one or more of the ingredients as it's been giving me loose bowel issues. It doesn't cause any gas or digestive pain, but it is dehydrating to have soft stools every day. When I stopped for a couple days and my digestive system went back to normal and the fatigue came right back. I started taking it again yesterday and slept wonderfully. Hoping to find a way to make it owrk. When I was taking it, I had more productive sleep at night. Even if I did wake up in the middle of the night (like a couple nights ago we had a big storm), I would fall back asleep immediately. And when I am up, I actually feel awake and not tired, stressed or strung out. For this reason I've been reluctant to quit taking it, but I'm going to have to listen to my body if my digestive system won't adjust (giving it one more day). Hopefully cutting down to one capsule a day will help. Update 1: 5/6/16 - I cut down to 1 capsule a day. It seems to have a positive effect, but I still have bowel issues (just not as severe). I may have to find an alternative. This may not be so much a fault of the product, but perhaps I am allergic/sensitive to one of the ingredients in it. Update 2: 6/13/16 - Now that I've been taking these a while, my stomach seems to have adjusted well onto one capsule a day. I've come to realize after a bit of research that I had probably been experiencing low iron. I've always been prone to it, but it appears to have been made worse with hormones, bad diet and foot strike anemia (running a lot on pavement). Taking these regularly with my iron pills has really made a difference. I do boost the dosage up to 2 capsules a day when I get my menstrual cycle. I'm feeling like *me* again. Hoping to wean onto a multivitamin at the end of this summer, but for the time being I'm very happy to have these to help boost my energy. One thing that is important to note. It's not a good idea to take this before bed. It will keep you up! Otherwise, they are very good supplements depending on why one is experiencing fatigue and how long one stays them (would not recommend using them indefinitely without a doctor's okay).

I'm definitely one to write reviews on products I love. I purchased this bottle 3 days ago. I was very curious to see if it would work for me. I looked over all the reviews and it seemed pretty legit but it still made me raise an eyebrow thinking does this product really work and will it work for me. So I gave in bought it, received it the next day shipping. Because I was too eager to see if this was going to work for me. I myself am hypothyroid and asthmatic. I forever will be taking that one pill daily for the rest of my freakin life. Lol. But while taking my thyroid pill, I felt exhausted always, very sluggish, spurts of energy here and there, headaches, my mind racing a million miles per hour, always tense, stressed out, depressed, very emotional, sleepless nights, bloated,and no thoughts of literally moving out of my bed. But I forced myself to get out of bed daily to go to work. I dread dealing with others. My face looked like I looked exhausted and I clearly had no sleep. I always had the "oh you look tired". I hated that. Mind you, I'm in my mid 30's, 142lb, a tad bit over weight lol. But I shouldn't feel like a truck ran over me. When I received my package, I ripped that sucker open quickly and popped two pills. Obliviously I did read the directions on taking two pills daily. But I should've taken one in the morning and one in mid day. But my package was delivered at night so I didn't want to wait til the next day to take it. Impatience, lol. The following day I took it as directed and I continued so on. I cannot explain how amazing I feel but it's a beautiful thing. I sleep thruough the nights, I have energy, I am a much happier and laid back person. I don't experience the headaches as much. I know it's only been four days counting today but I must say this pill really works for me. I don't know what's in this pill but it was enough to get me up and about and have my energy level on 100. I really took a risk and I'm happy I took it by purchasing this bottle. Before I even thought of getting adrenal support. I did some research that a thyroid condition is confused with adrenal gland condition and that's what made me start looking into an adrenal support pill. we all have different body mechanics but this has done wonders for my body so far. I will do an update in two months to see where I am at. So look into it for yourself. :) Thanks for reading.

THE MOST IMPORTANT HONEST REVIEW YOU NEED TO READ! I feel as though this product saved my life. I am a very fit and active person with a healthy diet and lifestyle. However, after becoming pregnant with my second child I began experiencing extreme fatigue, irritability, and widespread body pain. After giving birth my symptoms never subsided. I quickly became pregnant again and had my third child. I was struggling immensely to live the active lifestyle I wanted and was extremely frustrated that I was always in pain no matter how well I controlled my diet. I felt like a shell of who I had send to be. I finally went to my primary care doctor and he had a full blood work up done. Not only was nothing wrong with my numbers but they were actually great. I went to a neurologist for my brain fog and migraines and nothing showed up in my MRI. I felt hopeless and wondered how I was going to live a long fulfilling life when I felt like I was slowly dying. I tried this supplement on a whim after reading about adrenal fatigue and realizing I was experiencing every single symptom. My hopes were not high. However, within two days my life began to turn around. I was able to get up normally in the morning and was more alert. Over time my widespread pain began to subside. I was able to function in the morning, not crash during the day and not struggle exclercising in the evening. Within two weeks I was able to start leaving the house without dread and extreme fatigue. I have now taken the supplements for three months and feel as good as I did before my second pregnancy. I was so worried I had fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome but now I am a highly functioning and happy feeling individual. I feel now like I will live a long and happy life. I only wish doctors were aware of adrenal fatigue and treated it. I am so thankful to have found this life saving supplement.

I bought this because I have adrenal exhaustion and I need to lose weight. I am currently taking another adrenal support supplement that I like very much, but I am also on a medication that raises cortisol and this came up when I searched for something to control my cortisol levels. The pros: It does give me energy and I am much more active when I take this. Weeding the flower beds, cleaning, general desire to work is noticeably improved. I don't get any jitters or nausea. So, I love how it makes me feel during the day. The cons: I usually take it mid-day, around 3-4 pm. I took it for 4-5 days, went off of it for a week, then took it again yesterday. It gives me really weird dreams, nightmares, insomnia and makes my feet itch at night. The bottoms of my feet and in between my toes itch to the point that it keeps me awake. I am also prone to a reaction to my other medication that causes my eyelids to swell, itch and become very crepey and scaly. They turn red and sort of burn and itch. Normally I know how to control it, but this medication really ramps up that reaction and I wake up the next day after taking it with my eyelids and around my face swollen to twice their normal size with severe cracks in my eyelids. I might be able to take it in the early morning and avoid the nightmares and insomnia and *maybe* the itching feet, at least at night, but the horrific eyelids and puffiness that make it to where I cannot go out in public means unfortunately, this won't work for me.

I am 47 years old and facing my bodies slow decline in just about every area. I also have the added excitement of being pre-menopausal. The combination is enough to make me want to pull my thinning hair out. My work life has gone from stressful to full blown crisis stressful. With all my other body issues going on I was shutting down with major exhaustion. To the point driving home from work I could feel like sleeping on the spot. I woke up tired, went to bed tired and was walking dead all day. Something had to change, I tried menopause supplements, they lessened the cramps and mental fog but nothing cut through the exhaustion. I wanted to cry, all I wanted was to feel human again and to be able to do my normal life again. So researching exhaustion, I read about how stress could effect my adrenal glands and all my symptoms lined up with all the other testimonials. So I bought a bottle. Not expecting a huge or noticeable change in the first few weeks, BUT oh my goodness! My energy is coming back, and I actually feel close to normal. The first week alone was a significant improvement for me! No more walking dead! I feel well rested and getting through the work day is easy, PLUS after work I can garden, or go for a hike and actually enjoy myself. I am amazed and so thankful! I seriously thought I was losing my mind with how drained I felt all the time, this product has turned my life back to normal!

This is a great product. I feel it helps in every area.
